David and Kathy Parsons are missionaries with the North American Mission Board. They work with local churches in North Carolina reaching marginalized children, youth, and families with the gospel of Jesus Christ. They make contacts through multifamily housing areas and inner-city churches and build relationships with these families and children by providing for spiritual, mental, physical and social needs.

David networks with churches, schools, organizations, individuals, and businesses to help them engage their communities for Christ. By coming along side a local church, he helps them begin new types of ministries to reach unchurched youth in their area. He regularly meets with pastors, principals, and business leaders to encourage them and help them connect and partner with each other. David is a missionary with the North American Mission Board (NAMB).

David challenges, equips, and trains churches to develop Christian Youth Mentoring programs for school-age boys and girls.

PRAY FOR THE CITY
We work in the city with at-risk youth and families. Please pray that these children and adults would realize their need for the Good News that Jesus loves them and died for their sins. Please pray that they would not succumb to the many negative influences that pervade these communities. Please pray that their eyes would be opened to see God's holiness, power, and love.
PRAY FOR US
Our work is with people from challenging backgrounds and the labor is difficult. Please pray that God would grant us strength, safety, and creativity as we seek to live and share the Good News of Jesus in the inner-city. Pray that God would lead to people who are ready to receive the Good News.
PRAY FOR MINISTRY PARTNERS
The laborers are few in the city. Many churches and community groups exists but they often struggle to reach their communities with the Good News. Please pray that God would lead us to partners - individuals, churches, and groups who have a heart for the lost and are ready to work together to see lives changed for eternity.
